Water submeters: testing.

(1) Existing law requires that a person who uses, or intends to use, any weight or measure, or weighing or measuring instrument for commercial purposes, cause them to be sealed by a sealer before using the same, unless they have been sealed before sale, in which case existing law allows the purchaser to use them for the remainder of the period authorized by regulations adopted by the Secretary of Food and Agriculture. There is within the Department of Food and Agriculture the Division of Measurement Standards, whose activities are designed to ensure, among other things, the accuracy of commercial weighing and measuring devices.
